- Net income of $44.1 million for 2018
- Adjusted Leverage Ratio 4.61x at December 31, 2018
- Financial Guidance for 2019
KILGORE, Texas, Feb. 13, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (Nasdaq:MMLP) (the “Partnership”) announced today its financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018.
Ruben Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Midstream GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership, said, “Looking back at 2018, the Partnership deployed two strategic initiatives undertaken specifically to strengthen its balance sheet, reduce leverage and improve its distribution coverage ratio. In the second quarter, we announced the first initiative – the sale of our partnership interest in the West Texas LPG Pipeline Limited Partnership (“WTLPG”). The transaction closed on July 31, 2018 and the net proceeds of approximately $193.7 million were used to reduce outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility, lowering our adjusted leverage ratio from 5.46 times to 4.61 times at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2018, respectively. We announced the second initiative in conjunction with our third quarter earnings release and on January 1, 2019, we closed the acquisition of Martin Transport, Inc. (“MTI”) for $135.0 million. MTI is expected to contribute approximately $23.6 million and $14.7 million of EBITDA and distributable cash flow, respectively, to the Partnership in 2019, contributing to an estimated distribution coverage of 1.1 times at December 31, 2019.
“With these strategic initiatives in position, we entered the fourth quarter of 2018 with optimism, as historically this quarter has been strong for our Natural Gas Services segment. During this quarter, our butane optimization business begins its cyclical upswing as demand for butane increases with refineries entering the winter gasoline-blending season. Though fundamentals remained constant in this cycle, we did not envision nor did we foresee the unprecedented, in terms of speed, drop in commodity prices that occurred from mid-October through December. Although our carrying cost of refinery grade butane inventory at the end of the third quarter was well positioned, this dramatic pricing collapse in the fourth quarter resulted in a $13.5 million shortfall when compared to revised guidance for the butane optimization business. This shortfall was slightly offset by modest outperformance in the remaining Natural Gas Services businesses, resulting in an overall shortfall of $12.7 million for the year compared to revised guidance.
“In our Terminalling and Storage segment results were slightly below revised fourth quarter and full year guidance estimates, primarily attributable to lower throughput volumes at our shore-based terminals, reduced lube margins, and unscheduled repairs and maintenance in our specialty terminals. For the full year 2018, the Terminalling and Storage segment missed revised guidance by approximately $1.2 million.
“Our Sulfur Services segment was also slightly below fourth quarter revised guidance as the fertilizer business experienced reduced sales volumes due to weather conditions in South Texas, which were slightly offset by an increase in sulfur storage and transportation volumes. For the full year 2018, the Sulfur Services segment shortfall to revised guidance was approximately $0.7 million.
“The Marine Transportation segment finished slightly above revised guidance expectations for both fourth quarter and full year 2018. During the quarter, we benefitted from improved day rates and strong fleet utilization, which resulted in the Marine Transportation segment exceeding 2018 revised full year guidance by approximately $0.5 million.
“In total, the Partnership generated a Net Loss and Adjusted EBITDA of $0.9 million and $26.9 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter and Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA of $44.1 million and $126.9 million (which includes distributions from WTLPG of $3.2 million), respectively, for full year 2018. Based on this performance, the Partnership’s distributable cash flow was approximately $9.4 million for the quarter and approximately $54.3 million for full year 2018, resulting in a distribution coverage ratio of 0.69 times, well below our targeted distribution coverage ratio of 1.25 times or greater.
“As we enter 2019, management remains committed to initiating strategies that reduce leverage and increase our distribution coverage ratio. The Partnership expects to generate annual distributable cash flow of $85.6 million in 2019, resulting in a distribution coverage ratio of approximately 1.1 times, as stated earlier. We estimate Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA to be $43.6 million and $159.5 million, respectively, for 2019, with the strongest quarters, due to the cyclical nature of our fertilizer and butane optimization businesses, being the first and fourth. Management’s expectation is that the majority of the Partnership estimated adjusted EBITDA will be generated by fee-based services, with margin activities contributing approximately 38% of the total adjusted EBITDA estimate. We are forecasting maintenance capital expenditures for 2019 to be between $20.0 million and $23.0 million, which includes a turnaround at the refinery of approximately $3.5 million.
“To conclude, Martin Midstream Partners remains a well-built company with strategically located assets integrated throughout the refinery services value chain. Although 2018 proved to be a difficult year due to the speed of the commodity price collapse in the fourth quarter, the strategic positioning that occurred during the last half of 2018 will strengthen the company in 2019 and forward. Further, we are actively pursuing strategic initiatives that will significantly reduce our leverage and narrow our focus to operating assets that serve the refinery services industry.”
The Partnership had a net loss from continuing operations for the fourth quarter 2018 of $0.9 million, a loss of $0.04 per limited partner unit. The Partnership had net income from continuing operations for the fourth quarter 2017 of $17.1 million, or $0.47 per limited partner unit. The Partnership’s adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the fourth quarter 2018 was $26.9 million compared to adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the fourth quarter 2017 of $48.1 million.
The Partnership had a net loss from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 of $7.6 million, a loss of $0.19 per limited partner unit. Net income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $13.0 million, or $0.33 per limited partner unit. The Partnership’s adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $123.7 million compared to adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2017 of $151.0 million.
The Partnership’s distributable cash flow from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $9.4 million compared to distributable cash flow from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 2017 of $30.1 million.
The Partnership’s distributable cash flow from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $51.0 million compared to distributable cash flow from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 of $85.9 million.
Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2018 were $252.8 million compared to $305.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2017. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2018 were $972.7 million compared to $946.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2017.
As discussed above, on July 31, 2018, the Partnership divested of its 20 percent non-operating interest in WTLPG. The Partnership recorded a gain on the disposition of $48.6 million. The Partnership has presented the results of operations and cash flows relating to its investment in WTLPG as discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
The Partnership had net income from discontinued operations for the three months ended December 31, 2018 of $0.0 million, or $0.00 per limited partner unit. The Partnership had net income from discontinued operations for the three months ended December 31, 2017 of $1.7 million, or $0.04 per limited partner unit.
The Partnership had net income from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 of $51.7 million, or $1.30 per limited partner unit. The Partnership had net income from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 of $4.1 million, or $0.11 per limited partner unit.
Distributable cash flow and adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations were $0.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018. Distributable cash flow and adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations were $1.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017.
Distributable cash flow and adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations were $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. Distributable cash flow and adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations were $5.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Distributable cash flow, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures which are explained in greater detail below under the heading “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information.” The Partnership has also included below a table entitled “Reconciliation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Distributable Cash Flow” in order to show the components of these non-GAAP financial measures and their reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measurement.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements about the Partnership’s outlook and all other statements in this release other than historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements and all references to financial estimates rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside the Partnership’s control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements. While the Partnership believes that the assumptions concerning future events are reasonable, it cautions that there are inherent difficulties in anticipating or predicting certain important factors. A discussion of these factors, including risks and uncertainties, is set forth in the Partnership’s annual and quarterly reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Partnership disclaims any intention or obligation to revise any forward-looking statements, including financial estimates, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Partnership’s management uses a variety of financial and operational measurements other than its financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) to analyze its performance. These include: (1) net income before interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), (2) adjusted EBITDA and (3) distributable cash flow. The Partnership’s management views these measures as important performance measures of core profitability for its operations and the ability to generate and distribute cash flow, and as key components of its internal financial reporting. The Partnership’s management believes investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Certain items excluded from EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing an entity’s financial performance, such as cost of capital and historical costs of depreciable assets. The Partnership has included information concerning EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because it provides investors and management with additional information to better understand the following: financial performance of the Partnership’s assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis; the Partnership’s operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other similarly situated entities; and the viability of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects. The Partnership’s method of computing adjusted EBITDA may not be the same method used to compute similar measures reported by other entities. The economic substance behind the Partnership’s use of adjusted EBITDA is to measure the ability of the Partnership’s assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, support its indebtedness and make distributions to its unitholders.
Distributable Cash Flow. Distributable cash flow is a significant performance measure used by the Partnership’s management and by external users of its financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and research analysts, to compare basic cash flows generated by the Partnership to the cash distributions it expects to pay unitholders. Distributable cash flow is also an important financial measure for the Partnership’s unitholders since it serves as an indicator of the Partnership’s success in providing a cash return on investment. Specifically, this financial measure indicates to investors whether or not the Partnership is generating cash flow at a level that can sustain or support an increase in its quarterly distribution rates. Distributable cash flow is also a quantitative standard used throughout the investment community with respect to publicly-traded partnerships because the value of a unit of such an entity is generally determined by the unit’s yield, which in turn is based on the amount of cash distributions the entity pays to a unitholder.
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure presented in accordance with GAAP. The Partnership’s method of computing these measures may not be the same method used to compute similar measures reported by other entities.
